RIG HTS IND DUTIES.

An article on "The New Parry by Henry
George, in "Thc North American Review" for
July, raises a question which is interesting and
grave. Mr.. George does not himself see that
he is raising the question but it develops
from his position AS to the relations OF the
drink evil to the land question. In the most
confident way he assumes that his theory about
land is "the deepest Of all issues and he

a patronizing manner as = a natural effort to

will probably never be known, but once started
IN a mass of fireworks the fire was

reflections upon insurance companies that write
pohcies on explosives kept in the dry goods
district, where the utmost precautions against
storing articles of an infammable nature shouio
be taken. 1t is an outrage that the great ware
houses in that region should be endangered IN
this way.
Several conditions combined to make the
rush ont of town in anticipation OF the Fourth
unusually great this year. The hot weather
had a good deal to do with it. And then the
fact that the Fourth falls on Monday, and that
two days away from the city's rush and roar
were to be enjoyed, was an excellent reason
why all who could should 80 to cooler and

So far az the summer months are concerned
the Saturday half holiday is firmly established.
The new law naturally has some effect, but as
st is not mandatory-desirably not, probably,
at present-th0se who expected to witness on
Saturday afternoon an entire suspension OF
business have been disappointed. The Half
Holiday Association is well satisfied, though,
and It is estimated that 100, 900 persons now
enjoy the afternoon Of leisure. How many OF
these spend the time is told In an article
printed on our twelfth page. An interesting
question has arisen as TO the operation of the
Law during the winter. There is clearly not
the same necessity for half-holiday in cold
weather as in warm. and employees might not

and early fall, but the present indications are
that no attempt to continue it during the

SUDDEN RICHES.
How a Clothes peddler Brough, Wealth
TO a Capitalist.

to a Capitalist.
San Francis 20 (Cal )Chronicle, March
3.--Gabriel Karsky rang the bell. His
business was that Of Il secondhand
clothes dealer and the bell was that of
No. 10 Liberty street, where David
Cohen, a capitalist, resided. karsky
kept a little stufiy shop at 335 Sixth
street, and often in the pursuit of his
calling he took II turn in the fresh air
and gathered up old garments to be
furnished up as new. Gabriel had often
rang the bell at No. 10 Liberty street,
and when he did SO this RAINY after
noon, about "a month ago, and Mrs.
Cohen came to the door she said, pleas
an,ly, Nothing 10 sell to-day, Ga
briel."
IL have, though" SAID Karsky,
drawing a crumpled paper from his
pocket; i've got a Louisiana lottery
ticket here and that is a coupon of tick
ct 1887 and | want to sell it," Mrs.
Cohen, however, would have nothing
TO do with the coupon, Karsky insisted
and the argument went on until Mr..
Cohen impatiently shouted from the
sitting Don to take the ticket and give
the man 4 dollar and let him go. The
ticket and Mrs. Cohcn's dollar changed
places and Gabriel pockcted the piece
and went on his way in the quiet con
tcntment of small profits.
On the 10th of February the list Of
prizes was published in the Chronicle.
and Mrs. Cohen, looking oven it with
mild curiosity, saw with amazcment
that ticket Nc. 13, 1857 had drawn the
first capital prize. and that her coupon
vas worth $4,000 She collected the
money through Wells, Fargo q Co.'s
bank. and, remembering the circum-
stance Of her purchase, sent Karsky
800.
This was not the only sudden fortune
thai came 10 san Francisco from New
Orleans last month. Another tenth of
the first capital prize was drawn here;
$1,000 came in 4 lump to an Old woman
who held a coupon OF ticket No. a..
100, and two young men with Murphy,
Grant 4 Go. have become IS, 900 richer
by holding a coupon Of ticket 45,15l,
Whlch drew the second capital prize.
